Skype Remote

The Flic (https://flic.io/) team wondered if it was possible to program their button to call a person on Skype. I realized that was actually quite simple to do since Skype registers a custom URI scheme on Windows:

skype:<username>?call.

So, it was already possible by using the "OS > Open" action. However, why not create a general Skype remote? Turns out they have a pretty good COM API that we could leverage.
